Just spent the last of my paycheck on Vitassium for my recent uptick in POTS issues (thanks consistent 90° weather!)

I have run out of Nuun tablets (I've been using these to tide me over until I can get actual salt tablets) and am in need of compression stockings.

My mental well-being would also likely improve if I were able to get a pulse oximeter, as I've been much more faint lately and am freaked that it might be low oxygen. I've yet to faint due to POTS, but this summer is the weakest I've felt with the highest HR I've seen since starting to monitor.

None of these are especially pricey, but I am having a hard time waiting until my next paycheck and will likely need to immediately spend all of that paycheck on bills and have yet to get an update if I'll even get the financial assistance I've applied for.

If anyone can share, I would be extremely grateful. It's not an exaggeration to say this is life-saving (or at least helps me to maintain my quality of life).

In total I'd need around $80-100 for two sets of socks, two bottles of Nuun, and the oximeter, and that's only if I get the cheapest of the cheap options (seriously, compression socks are no joke price-wise and will run me $40 just for two sets, ugh)

I told @fruityindividual about how I am rolling the smutty Hatefuck boulder up the hill and it keeps rolling back and smacking me in the face (they won't stop fucking), to which they replied:

I'M KILLIN' 'EM!!! *frantically throws some Gatorade into Remus' ludicrously capacious beach bag*

Because I saw the rb and I'm always intrigued by this.... Do you have any specific thoughts on the greatest game of all time dqix; like the world, the story, the celestrians or anything that comes to mind??

OK time to answer this

Dragon Quest 9 is actually a very special game to me because it was one of my childhood games. It was probably my first encounter with a JRPG outside of Pokemon and I remember sinking hours into the game. I love the character customization and the gameplay was so much fun!! The class system was cool and new to me and I loved how you could play around with different spells and weapons. And also the boss fights were really fun? The designs were cool and I loved all the story missions attached to them.

Speaking of the story? I love it so much. It took me so long to beat the game because I remember little me getting stuck on the cat leopard general guy towards the end of the game, but hoo boy when I did finish it. Felt absolutely amazing. It has been a hot minute since I played though so a lot of the story is kinda vague to me now :[

But you know who I do remember? Greygnarl. Love that guy to death. His fight was so much fun and then riding on him to fight Barbarus?!! Easily my favorite cutscene I did cry at the end of it :[ Love that old man dragon so much I wish he could have stuck around longer

This article will explore the importance of hydration, how much water we need daily, the signs of dehydration, and effective ways to stay hydrated.

IRONMAN WACO 2022 Bike Leg (112 miles = 180 km) Off to the bike leg I go. I have doubts a little bit on this one because i need to adjust my positioning because of the new @tririg closed arm cups installed. I was also worried because when i practiced the tt position my balance gets thrown off because of the wind in this area. Its a good thing that I was able to get used to it eventually on thursday night. So, as I traverse the city of Waco, my mind was telling me that my challenges would be the heat and the wind. So, my solution? Hydrate with @nuunhydration mixed with @baseperformance , splash my entire body with water as a go, take my @surphyto tablets every hour, and maintain aero position as much as i can. I thought I had the puzzle solved. I was so wrong. One mistake, i made was i assumed that the course was flat. And yes, i paid the price for it. The winds were horrendous!!! And the hills were leg killers!!! And the heat was agonizing!!! So, combine all three and you have recipe for disaster. The course was similar to ironman wisconsin, just add extrene heat and strong winds to it. So, my thought of getting a PR in the bike, turned into a survival bike ride. More than 100 participants dropped on the bike leg alone. I was just grateful that i survived that ordeal as I was able to recover from 3 bonk episodes and was able to finish strong at the bike. My total bike time was an agonizing 7:59:33. I was just happy to survive at this point. 😬😬😬 @orrcarbonwheels @orr_factory_racing_team @maunaendurance @baseperformance @nuunhydration @surphyto #orrcycling #maunaendurance #surphytoperformance #surphyto #nuun #nuunlife #nuunambassador #baseperformance (at Waco, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj4RCeNrRzL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Dear POTS friends (or anyone else with blood pressure/fainting issues/told to increase their salt intake):

The salt test is a myth. It is not real. Pls do not do this.

You could very easily consume way too much salt, as salt will probably always taste pretty good to you until you’ve eaten a lot all in one go. Too much salt is just as bad, if not worse, than too little.

Instead, talk to your doctor about how much salt you should be consuming. If you don’t have one/none of them respect your symptoms, try to find resources online (there are plenty—cleveland clinic has some good stuff).

Another key component of increase salt intake is increased fluid intake, so personally I get my excess salt from sports drinks. I try to do at least 2-3 cups of water per sports rehydration drink, and only do extra rehydration fluids if symptoms don’t subside or come back.

You should base your salt intake off of SYMPTOMS, not how good salt tastes.
